Diagnoses
Medicine has a talent for typology – for taking a collection of disturbing tests and symptoms and synthesising them into a unitary diagnosis. OOOH!! has many artworks that reflect on the travails of particular diagnoses of mind and body.
Selected Artworks
OOOH!! can be used to illuminate our understand of diagnoses as diverse as trigeminal neuralgia, autism, cardiomyopathy, dementia , anorexia and pemphigus vulgaris. It is pleasing too that a majority of artworks tackle themes that transcend any particular diagnosis.
